CEDIA, the Association for Smart Home Professionals, will present the findings from its 2026 UK Professional Smart Home Market Analysis in partnership with Essential Install Magazine at an exclusive industry event in London on September 30.
Taking place at Home House Studio, the invitation-only lunch presentation will give smart home professionals the first opportunity to discover CEDIA’s latest insights into the UK market and the emerging trends shaping the industry.
Ryan Bardach, Director of Research at CEDIA, will present the key findings from this year’s research, covering industry trends, business performance, market opportunities and the challenges likely to impact the future of the sector.
Attendees will also gain insights from the 2026 U.S. Professional Smart Home Market Analysis, which debuted at CEDIA Expo in Denver earlier this month. Together, the two studies will provide a perspective on the UK and US residential technology markets, helping integrators and other industry professionals understand how the sector is developing and make more informed, data-led business decisions.
Created for integrators, manufacturers, distributors and other industry partners, the free event will also provide an opportunity to discuss the findings, exchange ideas and network with industry peers over lunch and refreshments.
Essential Install Editor Daniel J Sait says, “We are delighted to be working with CEDIA to bring this important research directly to the UK industry. Good market intelligence is incredibly valuable, particularly when businesses are making decisions about where to invest, which opportunities to pursue and how the market may develop. Having Ryan in the room to present the findings and discuss what they mean for our sector should make this a particularly useful afternoon.”
